If an elected official does not introduce legislation consistent with
the U.S. Constitution, that official should be removed. It's absurd to
think freedom can be achieved through government control. It's even
more mind-boggling that the entire world fell for the preposterous
COVID-19 scamdemic.
DeSantis reminded his audience about
President Eisenhower's warnings against the despots of technological and
scientific development. There is, he said, "a danger that public
policy can be held captive by this scientific elite." Today, are those
not the same groups attacking freedom-loving people? Are they not the
ones who seek to control the world with an iron fist? These are the
people who have banned, silenced, barred, criminalized, and
de-platformed great leaders and conservative members of society, such as
President Trump, Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Candace Owens, Marjorie
Taylor Greene, and many others.
When government officials divert
responsibility to health officials and international organizations, it's
a sign they are unwilling to take responsibility for their
actions. They're using a planned, cowardly defense mechanism to avoid
accountability. Governor DeSantis refused to do this. He stood with
the people, unlike the far-left former governor of New York, Andrew
Cuomo, or the current far-left governor of California, Gavin
Newsom. DeSantis demonstrated that freedom is achieved through actions,
not politically correct babbling.
Many Americans often take
freedom for granted, and it is easy to understand why. For centuries,
they have been raised with the idea that freedom is their God-given
right, but, as that great patriot, President Ronald Reagan, said,
"freedom is never more than one generation away from
extinction." Millennials are largely clueless about what this means due
to progressive indoctrination in schools, while their parents have been
asleep.
Americans have assumed that freedom is only lost in
other countries. They feel superior to communist countries, even as
communism is growing right in their own backyard.
It's time,
however, to consider objectively whether the United States under
Democrat rule is so different from communism. Just think about how fast
"free" nations like Austria and Australia lost their freedom. Germans
are still wearing face masks everywhere.
While the Danish
government lifted all restrictions in January 2022, it still uses the
government email system, to which everyone is required to be connected,
to "remind" people to get vaccinated, and the government still uses the
school system's intranet to blast reminders of vaccinations available
for the students in Danish schools. That is not freedom.
The
people have a responsibility to fight back to provide for the next
generation the same rights we have enjoyed during our lifetime. Events
in 2020 have revealed to us how leftists have abused power around the
world. We must hold our elected officials accountable for their
actions, and when they violate our rights, we have the responsibility to
vote them out. (You can see me develop these ideas further on You & the Truth with the host of the Mike Essen Show.)
Governor DeSantis looked at what Americans are dealing with in 2022 and summed it up well:
The threats we face to freedom, the threats we face to a just society
are much more pervasive than they were just ten years ago. Think about
what the left wants to do. What are their political aims? If they had
elected just a couple more senators, they were going to pack the U.S.
Supreme Court. They were going to make D.C. a state, so they could have
two radical, Democrat, left-wing senators for life. They were going to
abolish the electoral college, so California could elect the president,
and they wanted to federalize the fraudulent ballot practices.
Think about these words, and ask yourself if Democrat
plans prove that they are for freedom or freedom's end. For the
Democrats, the word "freedom" is what the F-word is to Republicans —
it's a curse. When they talk about "democracy," they are not
envisioning America's constitutional republican democracy predicated on
individual rights and small government. They will not take action to
support our constitutional rights, and everything they say is
deceptive.
